Network permission problems

PC #1 Laptop: Win XP Media Center, wireless connection to Router, No
Firewall. I can see PC #2 and access shared folders and transfer files
from #1 to #2.

PC #2 Desktop: Win XP Media Center, Wireless connection to Router, No
Firewall. I can see PC #1 on the network but the (2) shared folders do
not show up. When I click on PC #1, I get the following screen:
\\FamilyPC is not accessible. You might not have permission to use the
network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out
if You have access permissions. Access is denied.

Both PC's access the internet ok.

Thanks.

Re: Network permission problems

check the permissions in your sharing properties (right click folder and
from drop down menu select properties, then click the sharing tab and the
permissions button). I've found that I don't have everyone listed with
permissions checked, when I get that message.
